PPR and HDPE Piping Products from Shanghai Zhongsu Pipe
Shanghai Zhongsu Pipe Co., Ltd. manufactures PPR and HDPE pipe and fitting systems for building water supply, hot-water and heating circuits, municipal networks, underground drainage and rural water renovation. Operating as one of China's established PPR pipe suppliers, our range is produced in Jinshan District, Shanghai, on high-tech extrusion and injection lines, using 100% imported raw material from Borealis and South Korean suppliers.
As a PPR plumbing company supplying complete pipe-and-fitting packages, we ensure a single project can be sourced, tested and documented from one production base. Our PE pipe programme reaches DN1200mm, supporting large-diameter transmission and drainage scopes alongside the PPR building-services range.
Our Product Range
Four product families cover the majority of thermoplastic piping requirements in water and drainage projects. Each family is supported by its own fittings, so a specification can be built as a complete system rather than a collection of separate components.
PPR PIPE
Polypropylene random copolymer pipe for potable cold and hot water, heating risers and industrial water lines. Single-layer, double-layer, antibacterial and PP-RCT variants cover hygiene, UV and high-temperature duties.
PPR FITTING
Fusion and threaded components that complete the PPR circuit: couplings, elbows, tees, unions and valves in matching pressure classes and diameters.
HDPE PIPE
High-density polyethylene pipe for municipal water supply, sewage, drainage and agricultural transmission, produced up to DN1200mm for large-diameter scopes.
HDPE FITTING
Butt-fusion and electrofusion fittings for leak-proof joints in buried and above-ground HDPE networks, matched to the pipe diameter and pressure rating.
PPR Pipe: Water Supply and High-Temperature Duties
PPR pipe is the standard choice for hygienic hot and cold water distribution because it is corrosion-free, does not scale, and has low thermal conductivity that reduces heat loss on hot-water runs. Fusion-welded joints create a continuous, homogeneous pipeline without threaded weak points — a detail worth checking when comparing different PPR pipe suppliers.
- Water supply: PPR PIPE FOR WATER SUPPLY covers potable cold and hot water in residential, commercial and industrial buildings. Single-layer, double-layer and antibacterial constructions are available.
- High-temperature water: PPR PIPE FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE WATER uses beta PPR and PP-RCT grades for hot supply, central heating and industrial circuits, handling media up to 95°C.
- Antibacterial option: for drinking-water lines where microbial control is specified, the antibacterial grade adds protection to the pipe wall.
PPR Fittings: Completing the Circuit
Fittings are produced from the same PP-R and PP-RCT materials as the pipe, so fusion joints maintain a consistent pressure boundary. Our fitting range covers the connection, direction-change and control functions needed on a full installation.
| Fitting Family | Function | Typical Use |
|---|---|---|
| PPR Coupling | Straight joint, equal or reducing; threaded versions for metal transitions | Pipe-to-pipe connection, riser extensions, equipment tie-ins |
| PPR Elbow | 45° and 90° direction change, reducing versions | Corner routing in shafts, walls and plant rooms |
| PPR Tee | Branch outlet on a main run | Distribution headers, fixture branches |
| PPR Union | Demountable threaded connection | Pump, valve and meter connections for maintenance access |
| PPR Valves | Isolation and flow control | Zone isolation, commissioning and service shut-off |
HDPE Pipe and Fittings for Buried Networks
HDPE is a flexible, corrosion-resistant material suited to buried water mains, sewage and drainage lines, and agricultural transmission where long runs and ground movement are expected. Its toughness allows trenchless and coiled installation, and butt-fusion joints produce a continuous, leak-resistant pipeline.
- Municipal water supply and distribution mains
- Sanitary and storm sewage, large-diameter underground drainage
- Rural water network renovation and irrigation transmission
- Industrial process water and non-potable transfer lines
Our PE pipe production reaches DN1200mm, which allows a project to specify a single material system from small service connections through to large-diameter transmission. HDPE fittings are matched to the pipe diameter and pressure class for fusion-welded assembly.
Quality Control and Acceptance
ZHSU operates a CNAS-certified national laboratory and runs full-process monitoring from raw material intake to finished-goods release, the kind of oversight buyers expect from an established PPR plumbing company. Every batch is sampled and tested, and production data is checked at regular intervals during extrusion and injection. Management systems are certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001, and CE documentation is available for applicable products.
- Incoming raw material verification against supplier certificates
- In-process dimensional and pressure checks at fixed intervals
- Batch sampling and factory inspection reports issued with shipments
- CNAS laboratory testing for material and performance parameters
Information We Use to Configure Your Solution
To prepare an accurate configuration and quotation, we work from the project's technical data rather than a generic catalogue selection. The following inputs allow us to match pipe grade, diameter, pressure class and fitting schedule to the actual duty.
| Project Input | What It Determines |
|---|---|
| Application and medium | Material family (PPR, PP-RCT, HDPE) and grade selection |
| Operating temperature and pressure | Wall thickness, pressure class and high-temperature grade |
| Diameter schedule and layout | Pipe sizes, fitting types and quantities |
| Installation method | Fusion, threaded or mechanical joint fittings |
| Order list and trade terms | Quantities, packing, delivery scope and quotation basis |
Delivery, Packing and Support
Pipe fittings are packed in transparent plastic bags in specified quantities and placed in dedicated cartons; pipes are bundled and wrapped in woven bags. Standard delivery is typically 15 days, subject to the order list and current production schedule, and we share production progress updates and photos at regular intervals. OEM and ODM configurations are supported, and samples can be supplied for evaluation before bulk ordering — standard practice for a responsive PPR plumbing company.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which PPR pipe should be used for hot-water and heating circuits?
For hot supply, central heating and industrial hot water, we recommend beta PPR or PP-RCT grades, which handle media up to 95°C with better pressure resistance at elevated temperature than standard PP-R. The exact wall thickness and pressure class follow the system design temperature and pressure.
What is the maximum diameter of your HDPE pipe?
Our PE pipe production reaches DN1200mm, supported by large-diameter extrusion equipment. This allows municipal water, sewage and drainage projects to specify a single HDPE system across small connections and large transmission mains.
How are PPR and HDPE joints made?
PPR pipe and fittings are joined by hot-plate fusion welding, producing a homogeneous, leak-resistant joint. HDPE pipe is joined by butt fusion or electrofusion, with fittings matched to the pipe diameter and pressure rating. Threaded PPR couplings and unions are available where a transition to metal equipment is required.
What quality documentation is provided with a shipment?
Each batch is sampled and tested in our CNAS-certified laboratory, and a factory inspection report is issued as quality assurance. Certificates covering ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001 and CE are available for applicable products.
What information is needed for an accurate quotation?
An order list with pipe and fitting sizes, quantities, the required trade terms, and the application details such as medium, temperature and pressure are sufficient for our PPR pipe suppliers to prepare a configuration and quotation. Samples can be arranged before bulk production.
